Super God-Level Top Student

"Sheng is right; Jian Gao is an honest man. Young people these days really have it tough, but no matter what, we must go toast to his wedding,"

Su Mucheng shrank her head and said, "Ah? Uncle Li didn't let me speak randomly about Qiao Ze outside. I accidentally slipped just now. You grandpas mustn't tell Uncle Li it was me who told you."

"Haha, don't worry, we won't. He's getting married; Xu Dajiang must know about it, right? We'll just say we heard it from Xu Dajiang," Zhang Zhijian said with a chuckle.

"Phew... that's good, thank you both,"

"Alright, let's stop chatting, let's eat,"

...

At the Xi Lin Mathematical Research Institute, Lv Bei was very efficient. In just the time it took to eat lunch, a new position was added in Qiao Ze's office.

Luckily, the previous office was spacious enough at over fifty square meters, and even with an added desk, it didn't feel too cramped.

In the afternoon, upon hearing that Edward Witten had already arrived, Li Jian Gao and Xu Dajiang found time to pay a visit together.

Just as Li Jian Gao had thought, Xu Dajiang was very excited to learn that Edward Witten had come to Xilin especially for Qiao Ze's paper. Incidentally, he had already arranged a series of activities for Edward Witten.

With a personality of such status coming, no matter what they were here for, not to host a seminar, or even a series of lectures at the School of Mathematics, would be a dereliction of duty on his part as the dean.

The school is now developing strongly.

Especially since Dou Dou became the chief recruitment marketing officer, the results have been outstanding.

Setting aside other places, just the neighboring Affiliated Middle School alone has this year already convinced thirty-seven students, who were definitely going to Qingbei and ranked within the top hundred of their graduating year, to sign pre-admission agreements with the university.

You should know that in the past years, the number of students from Xilin Industrial University Affiliated Middle School who got into Qingbei was only around eighty or ninety.

As for the Qiao Class and the Ze Class, they are even more popular, with over fifty top national competition students pre-registering for the exams, including seven who represented Huaxia in the International Mathematical Olympiad in the past two years, all of whom won gold medals.

But Xu Dajiang was not satisfied.

After all, he wasn't really considering Huaxia and Yanbei anymore.

To establish Xilin Mathematics as a distinct school of thought, focusing on domestic achievements was not appealing.

He needed to think more internationally. At the very least, he had to have the ambition to surpass the likes of Harvard and Columbia before he could create the perfect School of Mathematics in his mind.

Of course, that required Xilin's School of Mathematics to produce several graduates capable of winning internationally recognized academic awards in the future to secure that position, but that was a matter for later. For now, it was important to build the school's prestige.

One of the quickest ways to raise prestige is to invite world-class experts for lectures.

Regardless of how much attendees can learn from a one or two-hour presentation, why would a Fields Medal recipient come to Huaxia but choose not to visit Huaxia or Yanbei, and instead hold a lecture at Xilin University of Technology School of Mathematics?

Could it be that Huaxia and Yanbei weren't keen on inviting him?

In any case, Xu Dajiang's visit this time was mission-oriented.

What he didn't expect was that upon entering, the layout of the office would give him a pleasant surprise.

Family, who knows? There was an extra desk in the office?

The Professor Witten he had been longing for was sitting at a desk, diligently engrossed in work?!

Could this be considered an imperial appointment?!
